FOR THIRD-PARTY RECRUITING PROFESSIONALS (i.e., HEADHUNTERS)

JHRS was primarily formed to serve as a community for HR practitioners (i.e., in-house HR) to foster learning, sharing, and exchange of information and resources with other members of the community. Nevertheless, we do recognize that third-party recruiting or headhunting is still a part of the HR profession and as such, in the spirit of inclusiveness, third-party recruiting professionals are welcome to join JHRS as Staffing Professional Member (click here to see the summary of membership benefits).

However, in order to be accepted as a paid Staffing Professional Member the following qualifications shall be observed:

• At least 3 years of professional experience as a headhunter or recruiter gained from a reputable search or recruiting firm. Relevant licenses or certifications as a staffing professional highly desirable but not required;
• Endorsed in writing by an existing JHRS member;
• Agree to be interviewed by a representative of the JHRS Membership Committee; 
• Agree to be a member of JHRS' ResponsibleRecruiting Advocacy;
  
• Former HR practitioners who became third-party recruiting professionals will be given priority in the allocation of available staffing professional membership quota; and,
  
• Adhere to the 80-20 rule (see below note).
  

NOTES:

• The 80-20 rule means that a maximum of 20% of the group's total or current paid-memberships will be allocated for Staffing Professional Membership. For example, if there are already 100 HR Professional paid-memberships, JHRS can only accept up to 20 Staffing Memberships.
• Similarly, the 80-20 rule is also applicable to any JHRS-hosted events or functions. That is, if there are 20 confirmed HR professionals attending an event, only 4 seats can be allocated to staffing professional members.
  
• Staffing Professional Members will be given priority to attend JHRS-hosted events and functions.
